Don't Ask

Sometimes I hate when people ask me what's wrong. I hate answering that question. My body hurts all the time, sometimes worse than others, but I don't like explaining it to people because I always think that the person asking is thinking..."Here she goes again..." or "What's up with her her now." *Followed by an eye roll* I often feel crazy going to the doctors about things and just handed a prescription for muscle relaxants or some other pill they think will work. I want the problems fixed, not masked. When I injured my arm a few years ago and was going to physio I asked the therapist about some of my other problems and saw her for awhile, but it didn't really help so I just gave up after awhile. Now that I'm trying to get into a training routine, I figured I'd try again, so I researched doctors on my own and found a chiropractor with a good reputation. I have more xrays and body scans this week and I'm hoping between new treatments and a new bed that I will be buying in October, I'll feel better and less like a whiner. I remember my mom going through this before she was diagnosed with fibromyalgia. She thought she was going crazy while spending years and years going to different doctors before she got her diagnoses. I'm hoping that my issues are fixable and that I've found someone that will actually help me.
